Affording a Haverford Education

Have: information / people who are ready to help you / confidence / peace of mind /

We are committed to making a Haverford education accessible and affordable.

We meet the full demonstrated financial need of ALL admitted students thanks to a $28 million annual aid budget.

-- We are equally committed to ensuring that all students thrive while at Haverford and have full access to the College's educational and cultural opportunities, regardless of their financial resources. Our generous financial aid policies are designed to minimize student debt after graduation. If you're a student from a family with an annual income below $60,000, there will be no loan expectation as part of your financial aid award. Families with income of $60,000 or higher may have a loan expectation as part of their financial aid package, ranging from $1,500 ? $3,000 per year.

Haverford Student Loan Debt Relief Fund This innovative program helps students who graduate from Haverford with debt that was part of a loan expectation in their financial aid package, by providing funds to young alumni who are in transition after graduation or who have jobs of high social value with low remuneration. This $2 million endowed fund is one of only a handful of such programs in the nation.

LIFTFAR Program

Haverford has a program to cover the costs that financial aid doesn't.

LIFTFAR stands for Low-Income and First-in-TheirFamily Assistance and Resources. While the College's commitment to low-income and first-generation students finds deepest expression in our financial aid policy, there are often needs that are felt in the regular flow of a student's life which fall outside the parameters of overall financial aid packages. LIFTFAR aims to help fill these gaps.

Following the principle that every student should not merely graduate from Haverford but should thrive during their time here and beyond, LIFTFAR aims to make the extensive financial, educational, and social resources available on our campus more accessible. LIFTFAR will provide funding for incidental and unforeseen expenditures, both academic and non-academic in nature, that are not covered by a student's financial aid award.
